., as you look at a live picture of the united states capitol. let's check in with bill karins. how bad is it going to be today? >> downpours, d.c. and baltimore currently. it looks like one of those mornings that it will be extra slow. if you can get away with staying inside a little longer, wait for the rain to move out. the worst of it up i-95 from fredericksburg to d.c., heading for annapolis and baltimore, you're soon to get drenched. eventually this will work up into areas of, say, philadelphia and even new york city a little later this morning. right now just light rain in central p.a. we're covered in light rain in northern new england. those downpours as i mentioned will roll through philly probably sometime right around 8:00, new york city more or less toward 9:00 or 10:00. most of these areas apt to get a 0 break in the afternoon. then we'll probably get another round tonight. also have a chance for strong thunderstorms. it will be a hot, summer like day today around chicago and through the southern great lakes to the quad cities. we will see a round of thunderstorms
